Haha we have always played like shit in preseason, why blame that on the new owners. Also, Mancini has always acted like a 2 year old so this is nothing new.

 

[Ronin]

Even if we signed someone, we most likely wouldn't get them until after the USA tour.

 

[JJM]

Sky says if offers higher than 60mil come then we sell him and try to go after Milik who is on our radar for some time

 

[DS92]

Milik is not half the scorer Icardi is. He is better in some other segments of football but when it comes to converting chances he is far behind Icardi.

The rumour is bullsit of course but I had to comment.

Do you think it's possible that we as side could have a higher total goalscoring output with a player who scores less but is better at other segments of football though? People like to praise Icardi for the fact he finishes so many of his chances, but why not question why he gets so few chances, and whether hurts our side more than he helps it due to his inadequacies in other areas.

Basically I'm saying this isn't simple math. You can't always say that we would do better with a guy that scores 15 goals a season than a guy that scores 12.

Also, before someone throws the Jovetic as CF thing at me. I don't think we would be better off with him as CF either.

 

[Fapuccino]

We can't afford a main CF that scores <15/season. Icardi's 16 was bad from what we expect of him, and given his inconsistent link up. Unless he significantly improves his game, a <20 season from Icardi would be a failure imo (he's also had injury problems).

If we can get wingers that can both score 10+, then we can start discussing a CF that scores less, but is more well rounded. We are in desperate needs of goals. Torino in 12th place had 5 more goals than us last season. Rube had 25 more goals, Napoli 30 more goals.

What I think of losing Icardi pretty much has already been covered by Shaun here. I wouldn't be devastated if we lose him too (at a good price of course). He's a good finisher, but by no means indispensable. Losing him can possibly be a blessing in disguise. Like Fapuccino just pointed out, we have been struggling in terms of goalscoring in the past few seasons. Icardi does well in finishing his chances but I am more bothered with the fact that he gets very few chances. Sure, the service he gets from the players playing behind him might not be of great quality but there must be a reason why his team mates struggle to feed him with good service as well, thus resulting in a lackluster goalscoring threat as a team. This is not a good thing considering that he is our main channel in getting the goals. Against quality organized defenses, Icardi has a huge tendency to be anonymous and isolated. This hurts the collective performance of the team, especially in the goalscoring department.

Call me stupid or crazy, but I'd rather have Ljajic than Icardi. With Ljajic, there is always a potential in creating chances and causing threats than having Icardi in his 'invisible mode' which is turned on quite frequently recently.

My point was that we should look for someone who is a profilic goalscorer if Icardi leaves.

Could we score more goals with someone like Milik, I don't know, I doubt it, we don't have many proven goalscorers besides Icardi. The guy scored 16 goals with almost no support. Give him a proper support and you have a 25 goals a season striker right there. People on this site really don't give Icardi enough credit, any team in a world would be more than happy to have such a good goalscorer like Icardi, Inter fans are the only who have a problem with that. Not to mention that he is 23, has plenty of time to improve in other areas. If you followed him closely last season you could see that he has already improved the amount of defensive work he does, he stared to put pressure on defenders and def midfielders much often. I see him only getting better, in goalscoring abilites as well as in other segments of football.

Talking about 'invisible mode' and then mentioning Ljajic as an opposite of that? This guy plays good only on the days he feels good, when he is not feeling it you don't even know he is on the field.

 

[Provenzano]

^ Good comment for Icardi!

I have nothing to add!

 

[pazza moratti]

I dont mind that we sell Icardi now, if we get a good offer. I thought Icardi renew last year to 2019 and received €4M in wages plus bonuses per season and player’s image rights will be split with Inter owning 50%. It does sound pretty good deal to me and he become the highest paid player at Inter.

I also dont like how he handle this situation with Wanda. Its hard for me to see him at Inter anymore and he is our capitano

We also have Eder, Jovetic, and Palacio with high wages.... What a joke! But Mancini did bring two of those to Inter and now its a time he but them to use!

 

[firmino]

the problem with his contract must be solved once and for all (well, at least for a couple of years...). either we give him that damn raise + a two year extension or we sell him, but for no less than 50 mln euros. he only has to focus on the field.

 

[Stuntman]

Sell him for 40 mill get Andre Pierre Gignac for 10 and buy proper winger for the rest of money left.

 

[bandiera]

gignac for 10 mill would be a disaster.

 

[Wobblz]

gignac would be a disaster.

Fixed that for you.

Agree on this..that's why I'm so mad with the departure of ljajic.

 

[Provenzano]

Perisic, Ljajic, Banega and Icardi (side by side) should be our offensive power in the new season, not players like Biabiany, Eder, Palacio and Candreva.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

Icardi is way too good, his value on the pitch is more than enough for Inter. He's not a Barcelona-style striker but a full-fledged poacher, I honestly think he's the most clinical striker in the game right now. If he had as good of a service as did Higuain, I'm sure he would've been in contention for capocannoniere (granted, higuain was on red-iron form this past season).

Another striker to complement Icardi would be nice, since Jovetić and he don't seem to click that well. Also give him better service for Wanda's sake.

 

[Adriano@10]

What i dont get is that people keep on complainig about icardi not beeing able to creat chances on his own and that he is too one dimensional. Also everybody in here agrees that he need proper support in order to score goals.
Now i think we can all agree that our strikers got very poor supprt this season and we lacked an attacking game play.
Yet icardi easily was our best scorer. Also 16 goals for a 23 year old who relies on support but bearly got any is pretty damn impressive!

Anyways i just think it s funny how the same people who say we have no attacking play and that icardi needs support to score goals that he had a bad season when he scored 16 under these circumstances.
